The entry list in British, Columbia shows plainly that the average truck owner, particularly the business firm, is anxious to find the best manner, in which to operate motor vehicles and keep an accurate accounting system which will show in every detail the cost of hauling. Many inquiries have reached the Consolidated Motor Company, British Columbia distributors of the Packard lines, as to why the national truck owners' cost system was adopted. "Tlie answer is simple and convincing," said Mr. A. W. Cruise, of the Consolidated Motor Company, "First, 'the system is the result of the experience of owners operating every well known make of truck on the American market, in all parts of the country, and over greatly, diversified road conditions. "Second, it is an absolutely unbiased one; that is, it is not gotten out ~ by any one truck maker or by men favoring, a certain* make of (truck. All of the leading truck makers have indorsed it and ' con< tributed their experience with those of the owners toward its perfection. "The third and most important reason is that if properly' kept it will give to the truck owners or prospective buyers a true picture of what any make of truck can do under certain conditions. If the owner wants to find out what his trucks are doing as compared with what some other mane of truck is doing under similar conditions, he has but to compare his cost sheets with those of another operator who is also using the national cost system." motor, vehicle movement. Practical men will not weary their tongues with bucb ,a word of learned length and foreign derivation." The present King of England, King George, placed his stamp of approval upon the motor car in 1900, when he took up motoring for the first time. This is the season when the owner of a car should replenish oil in all compartments, engine, clutch, gear-set and i rear axle. The compartments should be flushed out with kerosene before the new oil is installed. THE A prominent physician of Flathush. N. Y., was the owner of an early motor car which at that time, he stated, saved him $600 a year, as„ compared with the cost of two horses, which he formerly kept in use in his practice. A TEST OF STRENGTH AUTO IS NEEDED. The automobile has become a part and parcel of the life of the nation. Its uses and utilities are woven into every phase' of our home, business, financial, social/' professional,' even governmental life.—Kisselgraphs. Speaking of the wordv "automobile" at the time it was first being seriously considered as the authentic name for all motor vehicles used to carry passengers, an early writer had this to say: "As for the word-'automobile,' it is French, and represents the faddish and speculative phases of the Tire Repairs - Auto Repairs We .have just added to.our extensive tire business an Auto Repair Department manned,by men who have had considerable experience In the repair 'business both*here and in France. ?J , - » ,, ■ We can fix your car from top to bottom.

Kopper King The Kopper King meets completely the exacting needs of motorists, of those car owners who are seeking the utmost freedom from sparking troubles. Copper - covered asbestos gaskets cushion the porcelain, protecting it from the smashing, hammer-like blows of the exploding gas mixture. As protection for the shell of the plug, a heavy coating of copper eliminates rust troubles, preventing absolutely the temper-trying exasperation of a spark plug rusted fast into the cylinder head. But the copper surface does more, it prevents carbon deposits; carbon will not adhere to copper, under electrical heat, consequently spark plug short- circuiting, the trouble-maker of smooth- running engine operation, is eliminated and the motor is at its best in pickup, in ready response to the accelerator at all times, and' in economical operation.
